Course Outline:

This course is designed for students who have completed over 2 years of studies. Students have a sound knowledge of the main tenses (Présent, Futur Proche, Futur simple, Passé Composé, Imparfait), an understanding of Conditionnel and Subjonctif and a reasonable level of vocabulary. 

In this class, we will continue to build up all aspects of the language (grammar, reading and writing) in a step by step manner along with constant revisions throughout the Term.

The course is divided into 2 parts: grammar and conversation as practice makes it perfect! Students will be encouraged to talk and should be able to enter unprepared into conversation on different topics that are familiar (everyday life, current events, travel …). Mistakes will be pointed out and based on that, grammar will be reinforced. Active participation is required. Homework will be assigned.
